Top tier service and vibes. Our party of 20 took over the back patio, and our server could not have been more friendly or accommodating. Our group had 10 kids under 6 and he handled it like an absolute pro and really just made us feel so welcome. The food here is great! Standard pub food like pretzel bites, tendies, wings, flatbread, etc. We shared a bunch of things and it was all great. The inside is a bit dark since it's a bar, so we loved how nice the covered outdoor patio was on a gorgeous summer afternoon. There are many bars in this area of downtown East Stroudsburg, and I'm so happy we stumbled upon this one. read more

Ho hum all around. Granted, I didn't order anything too interesting. The wrap was really salty, the offending ingredient had to be the dressing. Luckily, the chips weren't salty at all. Service wasn't overly attentive given I was the only customer when I arrived. Charge a credit card fee. read more

Food and service were excellent, espresso martinis were very tasty, atmosphere was welcoming

A couple of friends and I met for lunch here. We all had the French onion soup, but none of us were thrilled about it (except for the melted cheese). The broth seemed watered down and lacked the robust, beefy broth taste that a good soup of this type should have. One friend had the shepherd's pie and said it was okay except for the potato topping, which she said tasted like instant potatoes from a box. The other friend thought her onion rings were too greasy and declined to pay for them (I tried one and didn't agree). Lastly, I had the turkey on ciabatta. The menu mentioned granny smith apple slices (I found 2 tiny slices on each side of the split sandwich), melba sauce (there was only about a tablespoon of this), and melted brie (again, a meager portion). read more

Friendly staff, great Irish tunes, football on TV and good food including perfectly cooked fries and an excellent burger!

The best service in town! I love the fish and chips and the espresso martini's are fantastic! I like mine with a touch of Baileys read more

Came in about 3pm on Friday. Not busy maybe 4-6 others in here when we walked in. The girl bartending/ waitressing was ok, pleasant enough. We ordered food, pretzel bites, Irish breakfast and salmon meal. First they brought out onion rings instead of the pretzel bites so we had to wait longer for our appetizer. Food comes out and the Irish breakfast is missing the black and white pudding..... the reason that meal was ordered. We had to go get the waitress/ bartender's attention and ask about it..she went and asked the cook and came back out saying they were out. Would not have ordered it had they told us that right away, they did end up bringing two more Irish sausages out to replace the blood pudding. He went to eat the cooked tomato that came with the meal and it still has the produce sticker on it. My salmon was good but just basic blackened salmon, I got green beans and mashed potatoes for the sides. Green beans were pretty good but the mashed potatoes were clearly boxed potatoes because you could taste the flakes it was dry and tasteless. Had to add a bunch of salt and pepper and even squirted some of my lemon wedges on it. Update: we added one star back because they came back with our check and took the Irish breakfast off the bill . read more

Great food, service and music! We will definitely be back whenever we are in the area.

Our new favorite place to eat when we visit my mom in PA! Good food, great atmosphere, and Matthew is a master at taking care of his customers. I highly recommend! read more

I was quite disappointed in their bangers and mash. The sausage was regular breakfast sausage and not imported. There was a drunk woman who kept falling off her stool causing a disturbance and in my opinion it took them too long to remove her. Due to this it took way too long to receive our food. The lights were off leaving a few "candles or mood lighting" which made me feel like we were anywhere other than a pub. I do not recommend this place. I gave 2 stars because the waitress was nice and pleasant. If it wasn't for her I'd give no stars. read more

Finola’s Irish Pub - Bangers and Mash - Irish Pub Near Me - Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania

My husband and I decided to try Finola's restaurant today. The ambiance was pleasant, and the live music added a nice touch to the evening. I ordered the Guinness Beef Short Rib, which was served over a generous portion of mashed potatoes and stew, accompanied by house-made brown bread. Unfortunately, the dish did not meet my expectations. It was lukewarm and lacked the authentic Irish flavor I had anticipated based on my previous visits to Ireland. The mashed potatoes had an unusual, slimy texture, reminiscent of instant (boxed) mashed potatoes, suggesting they may not have been freshly prepared. While the short ribs were acceptable, I found the house-made bread to be lacking in both flavor and presentation. Although my husband suggested that I ask for the dish to be reheated, I chose to stick to my principle of not returning food to the kitchen for alterations. read more

We have become regulars. Comfortable place with friendly service, great food, Smithwicks on tap and live entertainment. Family owned and operated. Best Irish Pub in the Poconos! read more

This place is a gem. Great live music and the best irish food in the poconos. The service always seems to be great and it is likely you will have the pleasure of being served by one of the hardnworking family members when they are not in Ireland. Try the authentic shepards pie read more

Awesome food great service and love the vibe. Guinness poor perfect as if I was in Ireland!!!

The service was good. The server was kind and professional. My friend had the Ruben and said it was delicious. My wife had the chicken pot pie and said it was outstanding. I had the veggie burger. Though it was very tasty, it was dry. Maybe some aioli or pickle chips to help that issue. The home made k no potato chips are awesome. read more

We stopped in before a local show. We had French onion soup, pot pie, and fish and chips. The food was great. Service was slow, but very friendly. We would go back when we are not on a time crunch of sorts. read more

We had a marvelous experience at Finolas. It was our first visit but we will certainly be back. We had shepherds pie, fish and chips and flatbread pizza. All were delicious and cooked perfectly. The restaurant is clean and well decorated. The service was impeccable. Of the many restaurants we have visited in the area this experience was far superior read more

We both had a burger. I had the cowboy burger and my husband had the classic burger with an upgraded side of onion rings. We both enjoyed our burgers. We both ordered them medium and they came out well but they were still good. I had a sangria definitely not good but that's ok. We would come back again. Service was ok. Not fast but not super slow. It was a nice quiet atmosphere. read more

On a recommendation from the postal clerk, we decided on a whim to park and walk up to Main Street and discover this awesome Irish pub. One year old last week. Congratulations The rockstar bartender, Jason, was engaging, personable and helpful with differentiating the menu items. A special shout out to the kitchen staff who did a fine job preparing and presenting our food. Loved it all! An APP starter of the shore buoy croquette: a shrimp, real crab and salmon patty was phenomenal. ($14) I ordered the short rib platter ($19) which was well presented and so delicious. My hubs ordered the bowl of Salmon/gnocchi soup ($6) and the Rueben, steak fries ($13). The sandwich was hearty and satisfying. We enjoyed our dining experience.

Good place to grab a bite. Flat breads were delicious. Buffalo shrimp appetizer was small, very small, lost a star there. Other than that pleased with the food options. read more

Best fish and chips I've ever had. Irish "nachos" were unique and delicious. Guinness flows often so the lines are clean. Excellent live music setup; sound, lighting, and stage position. I've never been disappointed with the entertainment. Can we get a website with performance calendar? Until recently, unless Amy was running the bar, service wasn't always efficient; this weekends bar team was on point and seemed to always be on the hunt for thirsty guests. Thank you Finola's for being my go-to spot for good food, entertainment, and atmosphere. Your late hours and sidewalk tables are a huge bonus. read more

There is Nothing Irish about this bar. Only having two Irish whiskeys is what makes you an Irish pub then I must have hit my head. BBQ Night?, Taco Night?, Pasta Night ?? Thats a food menu of a diner, not an Irish food Night? but your an Irish Pub? Do your self a favor and watch bar rescue or get out of the area and see what's new and get some pointers on liquor selection. The selection looks like an old supply closet, basic and cheap alcohols. read more

Found this place by word of mouth. Looking for place to go Sunday night on vacation. We were at Go fish Secondhand store on friday . And found out that the best to go for food and drinks and entertainment on Sunday is Finola's. We had the Irish stew and the fish and chips with SMITHWICKS beer imported. And fabulous entertainment. Best fish & Chips ever!!!!! read more

The fish and chips were the best I e ever had. Large piece of fish done perfectly and great chips. Sat at the bar at lunch time. Bartender seemed to have the tables and bar for service and he did a great job considering he had a table of about 10 guys on their lunch break. It was my first time there. Will definitely be back next time I'm traveling through the area. read more

The place was pretty quiet we hit it at an off time. The Service was great and the food was amazing.

Regular Irish pub fare. It was alright. Every dish has a little twist thought. So ask your server if you have any aversions or allergies.

This is a cool spot. Food was good. Service was good would recommend. parking is on Street. You need to download app to pay to park.

Excellent food and service. I had the Ruben. It was delicious and the fries were awesome. Beer is served icy cold! Waiter was very friendly and helpful. We will be back! read more

We are out of towners who stopped in for lunch before a memorial service down the road. We were pleasantly surprised by a great lunch-- turkey sandwich with homemade potato chips and what my partner called the best reuben he ever had. Of course, we had a couple of drinks to wash it all down. Jason the bartender was friendly and gave us great service. Would actually drive out here again someday to enjoy again! read more

Matthew was amazing!! He bragged up the food and it was every bit as great as he said!!! He was over the top friendly!! thank you so much read more

Had to wait an hour for the order to arrive. Why? One one server. No busboy.They need to fix the kitchen too. Food was ok hot but the wait time was too long. They were not that busy. Dimly lit dining area. read more

Also found by word of mouth. Was looking for a nice addition to Stroudsburg. We sat ourselves after no one came over for a few minutes. Server came over after 10 min of sitting. Drinks came quick. Food took an hour, server didn't say a word other then food is coming soon. We got burgers and Irish staples. Food was terrible. Service was terrible. Wont be going back. read more

The slowest service ever. Waited 50 minutes for an appetizer that wasn't even hot...like warm at best. First and last time going.

Went here on a recommendation from a girl at the Renegade winery. We sat at the bar, had great conversations with the bartender. Food and drinks were good. Great vibe in there. We'll be back., read more

Love this new Irish pub! Food was absolutely delicious, service was quick and friendly! Really cool vibe! Will definitely be back again!!

Went in with a friend for food and drinks. Waitress was very polite. We ordered 2 Tom Collins cocktails to start. What we were served were NOT Tom Collins. After perusing the menu we decided we weren't interested in dining there. We returned the cocktails stating they were not what we ordered and stated we would be leaving, and we apologized. Bartender and hostess were a bit rude but said that was okay. Later we sent a friend in to tip the waitress since none of this was her fault. At this point staff accused us of leaving without paying the tab and forced our friend to pay it. Seems like they took advantage of our friend's politeness. We did not consume any food and were served the wrong beverage which we also did not consume. Overall very disappointed and will not be returning and would not recommend to anyone. read more

A group of 8 was there on Friday 10/13. We needed to have separate checks, and the waitress didn't comply or offer this. When we questioned this and included their supposed manager, the waitress tried to separate the checks. Everything was wrong. Mine was the most affected because others had to pay part of my dinner. I refused to do that, and the owner confronted me and asked me to leave because I was harassing his staff. I told him all I wanted was to pay for my dinner and see my check correct. He asked me to leave, or he would call the police. Food, Service, Owner, and Atmosphere was terrible. I would not recommend this place at all. read more
